[R] checker/chequer board pattern as a colour

Hi All, is there a reasonably simple way of using a black and white chequer/checker board pattern as a colour: barplot(mydata, col = c('red', 'blue' 'checkerboard')) ? BW F -- Federico C. F. Calboli Neuroepidemiology and Ageing Research Imperial College, St. Mary's Campus Norfolk Place,

Not as a simple color, but you can use the rasterImage function to add a rectangle with a checkerboard pattern to a an existing plot, the examples for the function use a simple checkerboard pattern. Be careful of overusing something like this, too many patterned areas in a plot can be more
